6 ways to fall in love with Ireland now...

Infinite adventures, awesome scenery and a wild spirit like no other: it’s time to fill your heart with 100,000 welcomes…

Float

Lakes, rivers, canals, and the open sea... it's simple to float your boat over here. Cruise over Lower Lough Erne in County Fermanagh to Devenish Island, a place where tales of hardy monks and turbulent times spanning 1,500-year history are laid bare. Paddle beneath the night sky on Lough Hyne in County Cork's and see the bioluminescent plankton glow in the dark. Kayak the Blueway around Achill Island, a trail that traces the island’s stunning coastline from Golden Strand to Silver Strand.

Pamper

Tucked away from the madding crowds are ways to pamper yourself that are the stuff of dreams. How about a stay in Ballyfinn Demesne, an Irish country house voted number one in the world by Condé Nast? Maybe you’d like to sleep out under the stars in a luxurious Bubble Dome in County Fermanagh? Or perhaps simply look to nature and lose yourself with a soak in a Voya Seaweed Bath along the Wild Atlantic Way. This lot is just the tip of the blissful iceberg...

Love

This one’s easy: you’ll probably fall in love with the landscapes, the skies that never stay the same shade for long, and the way you forget to check your watch, your phone or your emails while you’re here. You’ll love the stories – embellished or not – that have been passed down through generations. You’ll love the traditional music sessions that kick off in your local pub, or the sounds of the laughter that rise to the rafters as you join in the flowing conversations. There’s a lot to love around here, so sit back and enjoy the journey.
